I agree with her a simple life is best if i was not married i wood give up my house and 6 day a week job and in a van on just a 300 a week pension and just long walks, meditate and read books
Anta !!! My friend from Macapá was just telling me about eating tapir 😂 goddamn Mary is a gold mine of ancestral living. Can’t get enough of her wisdom !!
First time listening to this podcast. This was a great episode! I'm currently healing from a chronic condition in a program Mary started. She truly is kind, supportive, and always smiling. When you are struggling, just think "What would Mary do?" It will guide you through every time.
I love Ruddick's work. But I'd add far more nuance and complexity to the gender issue. Among some traditional hunter-gatherers, men are involved in such things as childcare. There are even tribes where men will even allow infants to suckle their nipples. And some men actually can produce breast milk. There is greater gender diversity, including third genders, than is conventionally acknowledged in mainstream thought. The mix of roles is more apparent in the evidence from the Paleolithic era. The bones of female skeletons show that women were also involved in hunting. And cave paintings show men holding the hands of children. All of this indicates that women and men worked closely together in all areas of labor. That is probably because bands of humans lived and worked closely together in moving with herds. For most of human existence, humans were scavengers and then spear hunters, which are non-gendered activities and require communal labor. Only the spread of the bow and arrow with the megafauna die-off, shortly before the agricultural revolution, initiated gender divisions. But gender roles even then didn't become a major force until agricultural settlements. The other thing the bow and arrow helped to socially construct was the concept of the isolated individual. Prior to that, hunting alone was impossible. It requires a large number of people with spears to take down a wooly mammoth. That is why there was no option other than all able-bodied members, including women, join in hunting. I'm disappointed that Ruddick's views here are so conventional and superficial. She obviously hasn't engaged with the larger field of evidence. The tribes she has engaged with are those that have been in contact with agricultural societies for centuries. It would be false to assume that present surviving tribes represent how most humans have lived for millions of years. Ruddick could learn a lot by studying anthropology and sociology. There are many scholarly works on traditional cultures, gender roles, and the affect of outside influences. The hunter-gatherers that have survived is because they were allowed to survive. Patriarchal colonizers and other genocidal forces have eliminated all examples that didn't fit. We need to learn to be careful, skeptical, and humble.
Men belong in the woods just as much as women belong in the home with their children. Men need to feel like a man, enduring pain and building and sweating....woman need to nurture and make a safe space and feel loved and safe BECAUSE their man is protecting them. Our souls long for those things instinctively but for some reason we keep going in the wrong directions and then wonder why everyone is depressed and on medication.
The things you've listed as male OR female needs are actually male AND female needs. Everyone wants to build things, challenge themselves, feel loved, and nurture new life. And if enduring pain is what you base your concept of manliness on, then women are the manliest of us all. Let's not forget that women are the ones suffering period cramps every month and giving birth, and they on average have a significantly higher pain threshold than men. This has been studied and tested.

I'd disagree with the conclusion in the title, or rather I'd disagree with the implication. Reactionary right-wing rhetoric and identity politics, in caricaturing feminism, can cause harm. Other things (stress, diet, hormone mimics and disruptors, etc) are tanking testosterone levels and feminism is being scapegoated because it offers a simpler and more comforting narrative.
Great interview. I've recently come to respect Mary as a nutritionist/physiologist, but you pulled out her philosopher side here and I'm legitimately impressed by her perspective on sociological issues. I'm thankful for this, because her life experience lends many opportunities for insights.
As a male Mary's feminine energy is very attractive ❤
Great interview
Thanks
Wow this interview was amazing.
I agree with her a simple life is best if i was not married i wood give up my house and 6 day a week job and in a van on just a 300 a week pension and just long walks, meditate and read books
This was great! 🙏🏻 hoping you bring her back for more. 🙏🏻
I had a near death experience including an out of body encounter because of scorpion sting!
Anta !!! My friend from Macapá was just telling me about eating tapir 😂 goddamn Mary is a gold mine of ancestral living. Can’t get enough of her wisdom !!
Thanks guys, very inspirational 🙏🏻 love from the UK. ❤
I am going to leave to live with the wolves!!! 🐺
This guy really needs to take articulation class , he mumbles when he talks so we can barely understand what he says
good work
Wow.
My 4th time listening to this. So inspiring and I just love this content. ❤
Amazing talk! Thank you 🙏

Is that the Back to Joy program?
This was excellent. 💕
This was an incredible interview! Very different from any other interview with Mary I have listened to. Well done. I am grateful.
This was absolutely brilliant

Men belong in the woods just as much as women belong in the home with their children. Men need to feel like a man, enduring pain and building and sweating....woman need to nurture and make a safe space and feel loved and safe BECAUSE their man is protecting them.

Need..need..need
No women don't need to do those things
